As we approach the official end of the Southern Responses to Displacement project, join us on 11 March as we reflect on the changing positions, hopes and dreams of refugees from Syria in Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan.
Members of the SRD research team in Turkey, Amal Shaiah Istanbouli and Sara Al-Helali Saab, will be in conversation with SRD Principal Investigator Prof Elena Fiddian-Qasmiyeh, SRD Research Fellow: Dr Aminath Nisha Zadhy-Cepoglu and Dr Sana Murrani (Plymouth University) on topics including: meanings, practices and experiences of formal and informal responses to displacement since 2011; overlapping and evolving challenges in the context of protracted displacement, COVID-19, the 2023 Turkish-Syrian earthquake and the fall of Assad’s regime in December 2024; and reflections on the future of research with and by people displaced from Syria.
This online roundtable will be held on Zoom, in English, and will be recorded. A transcript of the event will be available on our website shortly after the event in English, Arabic and Turkish.
